A ‘climate restorative’ showcase project
Kirkland Fraser Moor for private client
Contract value: undisclosed
GIA: 925m2
This home is intended as a ‘climate restorative’ showcase project for rural edge housing. Its circular structure is aimed at reducing visual impact on the site and maximising solar resources. On-site renewables have been installed, while low to zero carbon materials include wood-fired local handmade bricks and new wood-fired clay tiles. The courtyard provides external amenity space while protecting sensitive long views within the rural context from the negative impact of domestic paraphernalia.
